Is the foot solid or doughnut shaped?. [i.e. Will liquid drain through the middle of the bottom?]

Yes, liquid will drain through the middle. This is the first actually attractive collander that I've seen. The first one came with a bent foot so I returned it & promptly got a perfect one. I definitely recommend it.

A better way to describe the bottom would be a metal bowl turned upside down with the bottom cut out then attached to the strainer

The foot is solid around the perimeter of the flat part of the bottom. The center is open except for about 1/4"that goes around the bottom where it is attached to the flat part of the colander. The RSVP brand is a little larger and In my opinion is a little heavier.

I wish I could post a picture but to answer your question, yes, the water drains out the bottom. The foot is open. It's just like a foot that goes all the way around.

The middle is a solid concave "foot" that holds the strainer perfectly stable on any flat surface. It does not drain through the bottom, only the sides. I have used mine with spagetti, rotini, shells & penne and drains every drop of water completely. Amazing sturdy construction considering how light the collander is. I have no doubt that it will last many, many years. I run it through the dishwasher after each use and it comes out as bright and shiny as the day it arrived. Definitely a winner!

The feet are about 1/2" when you flip them up, it's just enough of an angle to help the water drain into the sink. This is the best dish drainer!! I don't know why someone didn't think of this before. The previous drain boards I have tried all let water run into the sink but it would mostly pool on the tile and wash out the grout around the sink. The removable drip spout on this drain board together with the adjustable feet have corrected that problem. I am extremely happy with this purchase.

I seem to find only an inch or two of liquid, the rest solid on top. Seems to be high fat.

It's more like a 60-70% angle. It's definitely not parallel to the floor but not pouring straight down either. Right in the middle!

The bottom of the dishes are flat. There is not much taper towards the center. I am very pleased with it as it catches the crumbs she drops as she eats, I noticed a few just now when I went to remove the water one to check what the dish was like. Also.. I sprayed the bottom of the legs with Pam cooking spray and it keeps away the ants so I can leave the dry food out all the time.

it is a flat surface, you can use it for wine glasses or drinks with no spilling. There are ridges but they are close together making the surface level.

It is flat on the bottom. I have one. There is of course a rim on top to keep everything contained. On one corner there is a pour lip that helps direct the juices

The top side (cutting surface) is flat BUT it has the slightest "lip" running around the edge. The surface is textured. The bottom side has little round feet.

The lip is fairly wide and the insert fits well. Between that and your crust no fluids seep out. When your tart is cool simply push up on the bottom and it comes right out and looks beautiful.

there is a very slight, doughnut type, raised ring in the center of the lid...inside the ring there's about an inch plus of flat space

The little feet are 1" or 1 1/4", I could not get a more accurate measurement, the tray is always full of drying dishes. The good news is there are 3 not 4 feet, tipping it slightly which forces the water to the drain. That really is the reason it works well. It is a great clean cut drip tray and I could not praise it more highly. Many of my family and friends bought one after I told them it was the best.

It is flat, but it is not smooth. The bottom is made up of what is meant to look like individual sticks pressed together. The "ridges and valleys" are about an eighth of an inch. We set glasses on it all the time with no risk of spill. We are very pleased with the quality of ours for the price.

The insert is slatted from the center handle radiating outward to the outer rim. I suspect if you put Mac and Cheese in it to steam you'd just end up with cheese water at the bottom.

Roughly 2.5-3" plus the drip collection depth is another half inch. You can tilt to drain with the adjustable feet. We've been happy with our skillet. 1 year old this Christmas. Best skillet out of the 3-4 I tested out. Enjoy!

It is round on the bottom half and then it slims down where the filter sits. The handle is very graceful and easy to hold while pouring. The picture shows this but not very well. Hope this helps Patricia. Cleaning is easy because of the shape by the way, and the water does flow through the filter quickly.

The Inside bottom is perfectly flat, but the Outside bottom has a design imprinted on it, so it is not perfectly flat. Hope that helps.

Yes, it is totally hollow. With a resevoir as small as it is, I've found no real need for it to drain, if you water sparingly. But I always change my potted plant's soil periodically anyway, even if you decide not to put in a drain hole.
